Room 406, afternoon

[izzyalienqueen]

She'd needed last night, Isabel realized. After everything that had happened, she needed a night of being quiet and feeling safe.

Eventually she'd made it back to her room. After a shower, she'd called her mom, feigning surprise at the news of the destruction of the Meta-Chem, and quickly changing the subject to the cleaning supplies that were currently working busily around the room.

"I know mom," she said eventually. "Yes, we'll be out for dinner soon. I promise. Bye." Isabel hung up her phone and opened her laptop. Solitaire would be a good way to not think for the afternoon.

[Door closed, post is open! And I'm about to go AFK till about 7 EST. I'll grab pings when I get back. And I'm back!!!]

"I'll here. And I'll have the dates worked out." Isabel leaned back against her pillow, feeling like the day and all the explanations were catching up with her. "But for now, I think I need a nap."

"Go, sleep, rest, recover," Parker chided, and smiled, meaning it this time. "Bye, Isabel." She didn't add the stay safe this time. Far too ironic.

She lit up the cigarette after she hung up.
